Question: Since Episode 5 of The Flash is called “Girls Night Out,” is there a chance the girls will actually speak to each other? And might they do so at a party in anticipation of a certain wedding? —Tatiana

Ausiello: Thanks for your question, Tats. (Btw, nice work on that Orphan Black finale.) Here’s what Flash Ep Todd Helbing had to say about Ep 5: “It’s really fun. The girls [including a visiting Felicity Smoak] go and have a night out in Central City alone,...

Celebrities and celebrations go hand-in-hand and there was no shortage of stars at the 86th Academy Awards Governors Ball last night (March 2).

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt filed into the Hollywood and Highland venue where Bette Midler, Meryl Streep and Jonah Hill were all making merry.

Joined by his lovely wife Camila Alves, Matthew McConaughey was on Cloud 9 after scoring the coveted Best Actor trophy. Apparently he hadn’t decided where to store his hardware- “Don’t know yet!”

After an action packed six days, the Group segment of the League of Legends 2013 World Championships has drawn to a close. After 41 (one extra because of a tiebreaker) intense games, the four best teams rose to the top and Sk Telecom T1 from Korea, Omg from China, Fnatic from Europe, and Gambit Benq from Europe will be advancing to the Quarterfinals, leaving both North American teams, as well as the Southeast Asian and Lithuanian teams, in the dust.

Sk Telecom T1, Omg, and Fnatic all finished with 7-1 records, showing that they were the definite powerhouses of the Group round. Gambit Benq barely managed to squeak by with a record of 6-3 after a close tiebreak game.

Now that the Group round is complete, the four winning teams will join the four teams that got into the quarterfinals by default (for their division victories). The quarterfinals will take place until the 28th,...

The number of films dealing with age is rising as older people take up more of the cinema-going audience

The world's population is ageing. Today, there are about 600 million older people around the world, three times more than 50 years ago – and by 2050 there should be three times more again. The effect of that is already apparent in almost every sector, including culture, which of course includes the cinema. In the early 20th century, the brand-new film industry symbolised glamour and eternal youth before being relegated to a largely teenage audience, and then being caught up by age in the following century: the age of its audience, its creators, its characters and its subject matter.

The cinema has always found ways of dealing with the subject. For many years it simply skirted the issue in two ways. One was by using farce, with truculent old rogues, as in Frank Capra's...

Hrithik Roshan, who just underwent a brain surgery and was recently released from the hospital, has been advised bed rest for 3-4 weeks and some stars are making him very happy.

Dharmendra heard about Hrithik’s surgery and called him up to check on his health.

Although Hrithik was not immediately allowed to attend any calls after his recent brain surgery, once he got his phone the first call he received was from the Dharamji. Hrithik has been a huge fan of the senior actor.

Dharamji asked the Krrish actor about his surgery and has adviced him to be careful while performing stunts in the future.

Hrithik, who had a poster of Dharamji in his wardrobe when he was a kid, was so excited that he ended up calling everyone and telling them about the call he received.

Plus, Karan Johar is also working to make Hrithik’s rest after surgery more comfortable.

We begin, as we often do, at the Community Center. There, Simon watches from afar as a Medium holds court in the main activity area, bringing messages from the dead to the very living audience members. Suddenly, he points to Simon and tells him that he has a message for him from… Sally. Simon is freaked out, considering that Sally is probation worker he accidentally killed in the first season of the show

The Medium tells him that Sally has just one question for him. She just wants to know…”Why?” Simon backs into the hallway, terrified. Suddenly a door closes behind him. He could swear that he saw someone walk through it. He follows, spying a woman just down the hall towards the exit door. She turns towards him. It’s Sally. Wordlessly, she exits. Simon chases after her but when he opens the door, she’s gone.

Matthew Underwood was arrested in Florida early Wednesday morning. TMZ reports that the 22-year-old former Nickelodeon star was charged with violating a 12-month probation stemming from a previous arrest in April, when he was found in possession of weed and in the presence of a minor.

Welcome to the surprise ninth episode of The Real L Word, Season 3. Some of you thought the season was over last week, eh? Ha ha! Psych! This is kind of like the kitchen scene in Gremlins. You think you’ve disposed of all the pesky critters, but then you turn around and there’s one more standing right behind you wearing a shit eating grin.

“O hai! Can you give me directions to 559 Lorimer Street?”

Time to microwave this sucker! Yeee haw!

So, let’s honor all the Gremlins that we encountered in the last eight weeks. Over the course of the season:

- Lauren and Amanda were introduced as “friends with benefits,” but by midseason we clued in and were all “Stop trying to make ‘Lamanda’ happen. It’s not going to happen!” What did happen was a romance between Kiyomi and Lauren,...

Aylin Bayramoglu may have gotten tantalizing close to scoring a seven-episode arc on Glee, only to fall just shy of her goal, but you won’t hear her complaining. The co-runner-up on Season 2 of The Glee Project says that the competition “literally was a life-changing experience” that’s refocused her goals on landing a TV role and becoming a role model for young Muslim women who don’t often see themselves represented positively on the small screen.

TVLine caught up with Bayramoglu to talk about whether or not her Glee Project showmance was legit, how her family reacted to some...

When we last left the fine folks of the "Bachelor Pad," David is the last fan standing, while Ed is kind of a raging alcoholic and Chris is hooking up with everything that moves.

Post Elimination

Ed and Jaclyn drunkenly slur things at each other and then Jaclyn mixes some metaphors about a scale of 1-10 and Cloud 9. On a scale of one to 10, those two don't have five brain cells between them. Meanwhile, Jamie's sweating things a bit because really the only ally she has in the house is David, who is probably not long for the "Bachelor Pad" world if he doesn't win the challenge.

Then Chris Harrison stops by and they all have to fill out a survey about each other. Glassy-eyed Jaclyn sways on her feet as she tries to remember how to write, while Kalon smirks like he's still some kind of villain instead of an empty suit.

Golden Gabby has found her way into the hearts of America. The Olympic gymnast made history by becoming the first African-American to win the all-around individual title.

"Tonight, I was just cruising and now I'm on Cloud 9," Gabby said of her gold medal achievement.

The teen dynamo has wowed the world not only with her growing collection of gold medals - but there's also her grace, her incredible smile and bubbly personality. Plus, like all great athletes, there's a loving force behind this 16-year-old, leading her to be a winner on and off the mat.

The Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley was a guest on Live! with Kelly this morning, and he asked Ripa’s cohost, D.L. Hughley, if he remembered him. He didn’t. Wesley said he had “three phenomenal words” that might help: “Burt Reynolds volleyball.” That did it! They costarred in the 2006 film Cloud 9, which, judging from the trailer embedded below, was about Burt Reynolds turning strippers into beach volleyball players. “We were up for Best Picture,” joked Wesley, who appears to have played the ladies’ frequently shirtless trainer.

Both Hughley and Wesley recalled Reynolds’ generosity: He gifted Hughley, who played his son in the film,...

On 'Where Are You,' B.o.B laments the effects of fame on his personality and relationships.

By Rob Markman

B.o.B's <i>Strange Clouds</i>

Photo: Atlantic

Fame sure has a way of changing people, and on his new single, Bobby Ray and his alter ego B.o.B duke it out for four-and-a-half minutes.

"Where Are You (B.o.B vs. Bobby Ray)" opens with a lush piano melody, which builds and gives way into spacey synth sounds, a doo-wop-inspired background melody and a pounding bass drum. With the beat in full swing, B.o.B wastes no time confronting his issues when he raps, "Whatever happened to Bobby Ray? He used to be here for us/ Then he got famous and left all his fans in the dust."

B.o.B continues to rhyme in third person, lamenting on the changes that fame brings. World tours and...

Three very big names in Hollywood are coming together to adapt Gypsy, the well loved Broadway musical. With a match-up of Downton Abbey creator Julian Fellowes, actress and singer Barbra Streisand, and hit making producer Joel Silver, this project ought to get quite a bit of attention.

Silver has been behind projects like The Book of Eli, Unknown, and Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows. Streisand needs no further introduction. And Fellowes is riding around on Cloud 9 thanks to the popularity of his period series, Downton Abbey. That makes this quite the movie dream team.

THR reports Streisand and Silver will partner as producers while Fellowes tackles the script for Universal.

Stephen Sondheim and Arthur Laurents made Gypsy the Tony Award winning musical it is today, but it was originally a memoir by Gypsy Rose Lee. Lee was a burlesque dancer struggling with her Momma Rose, the epitome of the stage mom persona.

Reality set in for Ben Flajnik and Courtney Robertson as the reality show played out on national television. The Bachelor couple struggled to remain intact as Courtney's duel identity was revealed and tabloid rumors spread, calling Ben's fidelity into question.

On After the Final Rose, Ben sat in the hot seat first. He broke news that the twosome had split "for a period of time while this show aired." He needed a break to "reassess" their relationship. In response to magazine allegations, Ben swore "on my father's grave, I haven't kissed another woman, hooked up with another woman, or cheated on Courtney." On the day that article was published, Ben discussed the false rumors with Courtney. The media hog then went to try on wedding dresses "to divert attention."

As Courtney walked on stage, she was greeting with boos from the audience, much like Kris Humphries as he enters the basketball arena since his controversial...

Sarah Silverman Pilot Picked up by NBC

That saucy comedienne is in the news again. This week Sarah Silverman must be sitting on Cloud 9. Did you know she was developing a pilot? It’s true! Guess what. Her series just received a green light from NBC.

According to the Deadline exclusive, there was quite a bidding war over Silverman’s series! NBC became the victor back in August. Now the half-hour long, 20th Century Fox TV and Imagine TV backed series has even garnered the attention of Imagine helmer Ron Howard! Say what!? It’s just a little comedy right?

Well, kinda sorts based upon Silverman’s real life story, the so-far untitled “single-camera comedy” stars Silverman as a woman learning to adjust to the single-life once more after a ten-year live-in relationship comes to an end.

As if starring in it and having it mimic her life aren’t enough,...

As I said, I’ve had a very interesting career in comics.

Denys Cowan and I were biding time until the premier of Mike Grell’s Jon Sable series on television. I’d been invited to watch it in Mike Grell’s hotel room and I invited Denys.

We were wandering around the 1987 Mid Ohio Con and I was on Cloud 9 thanks to John Ostrander, who issued the invite. While Denys was looking at comics at a retailer booth I moseyed over to a creator’s booth. As I mentioned before I talk to everyone and the thought of looking at someone’s work while they stand there and watch me look at their work is just crazy to me.

So, being me, I started asking questions about the copies of what looked like a quickly Xeroxed...

While we might not know him by name, Joe Lo Truglio is becoming the perfect “that guy.” His scene-stealing supporting roles in I Love You, Man, Role Models, Superbad and in Reno 911!, has made him a fan-favorite. With Paul, Joe Lo Truglio re-teams with director Greg Mottola (Superbad), for a stronger, funnier role as F.B.I. agent O’ Reilly, as well as an uncredited performance as the title alien, Paul.

Killer Film catches up with Joe to talk about the film, the comedy, and working with Greg Mottola again.

Jon: I read in prior interview you’ve been a big fan of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, and as a fellow comedian, what was it that you liked about them?

Joe Lo Truglio: My first introduction to them was Shaun of the Dead, and I’m a big horror fan, so I went into that movie without knowing who they were.

Paul Wesley, the actor of Polish origin known for his roles as Stefan Salvatore in The CW TV series The Vampire Diaries and as Aaron Corbett in the ABC Family miniseries Fallen has been offered the part of Count Paris opposite Douglas Booth who portrays Romeo and Hailee Steinfeld as Juliet in the latest film adaptation of Shakespeare’s classic, directed by Carlo Carlei.

Co-starring cast includes Holly Hunter as Juliet’s Nurse, Ed Westwick and Kodi Smit-McPhee as cousins of Romeo and Juliet – Tybalt and Benvolio respectively with production planned for this September.

Julian Fellowes penned the script and is also producing alongside Amber Entertainment’s Ileen Maisel and Lawrence Elman.

Cult New Zealand TV Series The Tribe is being developed as a film by creator Raymond Thompson, with Peter Jackson's Weta Workshop taking on the project's special effects if the film is greenlit.

With the TV series already having a fanatical following in the UK, the film will introduce The Tribe to Us audiences under the name "Tribes". It is set in a post-apocalyptic works in which children and teenagers must fend for themselves and build their own society after a virus has wiped out all the adults.

"I always wanted to do a move version and work with a bigger canvas" to explore the world set up in the TV show, Thompson told Variety. Cloud 9 produced nearly 300 half-hour episodes of "The Tribe" from 1999 to 2003. Channel 5 continued the show for a season in 2005 with a spinoff "The New Tomorrow" which featured a younger set of characters.

We've done 10 films in 20 years together... This win is so special because, after the Golden Globes, we were left for dead. We had lost all the critics award, every single one. But we stayed the course and that was key... It is great for my company. It has attracted many films and all kinds of new financing opportunities."...

Nashville, Tenn. — Miranda Lambert proclaimed 2010 the best year of her life. After hauling in seven Academy of Country Music Awards nominations, 2011 isn't looking so bad either.

Lambert, joined by Ronnie Dunn on Tuesday morning to announce the nominees at The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, received her first Acm entertainer of the year nomination and will defend her 2010 top female vocalist win, along with nods for song and single of the year. Kenny Chesney and Zac Brown Band were next with five nominations each.

Dunn summed up Lambert's run with two words: "She's smokin'."

The blonde firebrand started her sizzling hot streak last year at the ACMs, with three wins, including album of the year for the lionized "Revolution."
